I built and installed a console to put my radio/GPS and speakers in a couple months ago.  It's main purpose is to tie the modern challenger center console into the dash so that it will all somewhat flow.  I know a lot of people will not like my interior and that's ok, we all have different taste and opinions.   :2thumbs:  Mine is more for purpose than for looks.  A lot of the time when I am driving it I have my wife, my 4 year old, and my 1 year old all with me so cupholders, armrest, and an extra storage compartment are very important to me.  Plus to make all the purist feel better, it all could be unbolted and returned to stock in less than a day.   :smilielol:      P.S.   Ignore the mess in the car, I cleaned it up when finished

Wow, that is cold.   A 572 Hemi with cold A/C in a 2nd gen Charger sounds like a lot of fun!   :2thumbs:   :coolgleamA:

Drove mine at Daytona!

Hey Nick, is that the Charger I seen in your driveway in Las Vegas? The one where my roof section is on it?

You've come a long way in a short time. Glad you're having fun with it.

:cheers:

Good looking wheel and tire combo on your car. :2thumbs:

Got one side of the USCT Level 2 chassis stiffing kit installed on the bottom of my 70.    After a quick replacement of the spring perch on the other side,  the whole bottom should get finishes quick!

My el cheapo ADDCO rear swaybar made a big difference, well worth 118.00!  :2thumbs:

Tires-

245-60-15 and 295-50-15  made by Diamondback on Bfg radial T/A's.

It had Wilwood front discs and Cadillac rear discs so that might push them out slightly further than a drum brake car.
